config: add 'git_config_string' to refactor string config variables.
In many places we just check if a value from the config file is not
NULL, then we duplicate it and return 0. This patch introduces the new
'git_config_string' function to do that.
This function is also used to refactor some code in 'config.c'.
Refactoring other files is left for other patches.
Also not all the code in "config.c" is refactored, because the function
takes a "const char **" as its first parameter, but in many places a
"char *" is used instead of a "const char *". (And C does not allow
using a "char **" instead of a "const char **" without a warning.)

diff.c: remove useless check for value != NULL
It is not necessary to check if value != NULL before calling

By the way this patch also improves the existing check inside

return config_error_nonbool(var);

return error("%s: lacks value", var);

fast-import: check return value from unpack_entry()
If the tree object we have asked for is deltafied in the packfile and
the delta did not apply correctly or was not able to be decompressed
from the packfile then we can get back NULL instead of the tree data.
This is (part of) the reason why read_sha1_file() can return NULL, so
we need to also handle it the same way.

Validate nicknames of remote branches to prohibit confusing ones
The original problem was that the parsers for configuration files were
getting confused by seeing as nicknames remotes that involved

directories and read odd data from them.
The validation function was written by Junio Hamano (with a typo
corrected).

cvsimport: have default merge regex also match beginning of commit message
The default value of @mergerx uses \W, which matches a non-word

status: suggest "git rm --cached" to unstage for initial commit
It makes no sense to suggest "git reset HEAD" since we have
no HEAD commit. This actually used to work but regressed in f26a0012.
wt_status_print_cached_header was updated to take the whole
wt_status struct rather than just the reference field.
Previously the various code paths were sometimes sending in

decision on whether this was an initial commit before we
even got to this function. Now we must check the initial

Protect get_author_ident_from_commit() from filenames in work tree
We used to use "cat-file commit $commit" to extract the original
author information from existing commit, but an earlier commit 5ac2715 (Consistent message encoding while reusing log from an
existing commit) changed it to use "git show -s $commit". If
you have a file in your work tree that can be interpreted as a
valid object name (e.g. "HEAD"), this conversion will not work.
Disambiguate by marking the end of revision parameter on the
comand line with an explicit "--" to fix this.
This breakage is most visible with rebase when a file called
"HEAD" exists in the worktree.

Nico analyzed and found out that this does not really help, and
I agree with it.
By the time this gets into action and data is actively thrown
away, performance simply goes down the drain due to the data
constantly being reloaded over and over and over and over and
over and over again, to the point of virtually making no
relative progress at all. The previous behavior of enforcing
the memory limit by dynamically shrinking the window size at
least had the effect of allowing some kind of progress, even if
the end result wouldn't be optimal.
And that's the whole point behind this memory limiting feature:
allowing some progress to be made when resources are too limited
to let the repack go unbounded.

Work around curl-gnutls not liking to be reinitialized
curl versions 7.16.3 to 7.18.0 included had a regression in which https
requests following curl_global_cleanup/init sequence would fail with ASN1
parser errors with curl-gnutls. Such sequences happen in some cases such
as git fetch.
We work around this by removing the http_init and http_cleanup calls from
get_refs_via_curl, replacing them with a transport->data initialization
with the http_walker (which does http_init).
While the http_walker is not currently used in get_refs_via_curl, http
and walker code refactor will make it use it.

I was able to solve this problem with this patch, which adds a XSL file
used specifically for DOCBOOK_XSL_172=YesPlease and where dots and
backslashes are escaped properly so they won't be substituted to the
wrong thing further down the "DocBook XSL pipeline". Doing the escaping
in the existing callout.xsl breaks v1.70.1. Hopefully v1.73 will end
this part of the manpage nightmare.

Make git prune remove temporary packs that look like write failures
Write errors when repacking (eg, due to out-of-space conditions)
can leave temporary packs (and possibly other files beginning
with "tmp_") lying around which no existing
codepath removes and which aren't obvious to the casual user.
These can also be multi-megabyte files wasting noticeable space.
Unfortunately there's no way to definitely tell in builtin-prune
that a tmp_ file is not being used by a concurrent process,
such as a fetch. However, it is documented that pruning should
only be done on a quiet repository and --expire is honoured
(using code from Johannes Schindelin, along with a test case
he wrote) so that its safety is the same as that of loose
object pruning.
Since they might be signs of a problem (unlike orphaned loose
objects) the names of any removed files are printed.
